Nottingham Forest replaces Aston Villa as the dark horse this season, 40 points collected confirm Nuno Espirito Santo and his players have control in the competition in the top four, their bargaining value in the trophy fight is now equal to Arsenal. The next match against Liverpool, clearly will not be easy for Nottingham Forest, but 6 consecutive wins are good capital to host strong candidates for the Premier League title. Liverpool need to be vigilant, Nottingham Forest will definitely target a draw if they are unable to create a surprise.

If the surprise really happens, Nottingham Forest dream of winning the trophy is no longer just a dream, what is clear is that they have now performed beyond anyone expectations. Liverpool who were held to a draw by Manchester United need to work better to maintain the points difference in the standings, although on paper they are clearly more favored.

So far the appearance of Nottingham Forest is really amazing, of course, their appearance is far beyond the expectations of many parties. I will never declare Nottingham to be able to win the Premier League but if they are able to finish in the top four then it is also extraordinary. But Nottingham Forest is one of the teams that has a sweet history in the past they have been successful on the European stage (Champions League).

In last several seasons we have continued to see the underdog team in the title race, although in the end they may still fail to achieve the trophy as happened to Aston Villa last season, this season Nottingham Forest replaced Aston Villa where they have been a surprise team that has so far performed optimally and consistently in the Premier League, only 6 points away from Liverpool Of course, currently Nuno Espirito Santo's squad can be said to have a great opportunity to realize this difficult dream, but with the record they must be able to maintain their consistency and performance until the end of the season, but looking at the toughness from of the big teams, I actually doubt if Nottingham Forest will be able to perform consistently in the second half of the Premier League this season.

Yes, the second half will be a bigger challenge for Nottingham Forest because some teams will be evaluating. But I really take my hat off to Forest's impressive performance and hope they can maintain their consistency so they can lock in the top four.
